    Molly, do you have a video where you talk about the *camera gear* you make your UA-cam clips with? Is everything mostly filmed on an iPhone, plus a drone? What sort of drone? What editing software or editing techniques do you use? I really like the way modern drones can track you and film you when you drive or walk along!

    Hey Molly, I served in the military for quite a few years and saw alot of northern Australia during the many years of training and operations. I don't think people realize how vast and beautiful Australia is an the endless horizons of pure flatness that is visible that you show with alot of your drone footage. The red soils, the azure seas and feelings of isolation watching the amazing sunsets, Thankyou for re-awakening long forgotten memories Molly, safe travels throughout this journey and life. Take care.

    Hi Molly. I'm always amazed at how red the soil is in AUS. I spent some years in South Africa in the late 70's and the dirt was the same color from the high iron content. That red dust got EVERYWHERE! I hope you think about writing a book about your travels and life lessons learned when you decide it's time to come in off the road. The chapter with Sunny would be a hoot! Thank you for the sunsets!

    Another great 10-15 min vacation sponsored by Molly. Heed her advice about making sure you get back to camp before dark. Lol. Once I arrived at my campsite and a bunch of us decided to go hiking. Its a real pain in the b*tt trying to find your campsite in the dark. No camping for me this weekend. Vehicle maintenance.

    ASs a grey nomad travelling around in my Paradise Motorhome I've enjoyed your presentation. There's no doubt about it our great outdoors has a lot to offer. Exploring and adventure is endless, it's certainly life changing if you prepare, understand risks, appreciate costs but more over just get out there and enjoy every day remembering your safety comes first. I'm a trekker and I have a back pack with all sorts of fir staid goodies especially a PLB (personal location beacon). One never knows we may cross paths in our great outdoors. Thank you for you most interesting presentation.

    Driving a pickup truck fitting a rack for smaller motocross bike 125-250cc. The bike would get you out of any situation if the car break down get stuck or out of gas or flat tire’s. Just on load the bike and drive with the bike to town for help or spare parts. Whit a light weight 125cc motocross you can pull it out and lead it with motor assistance on foot if road conditions are almost impossible mud sand rocks. All you need for the bike is two 5L spare cans of gasoline and 1-L of two stroke oil which will get far distances from the broken car.

    I am sure you must have sat communication or at least a Spot X or Garmin or similar device to enable you to get assistance in case of emergency and or keep in touch with relies... personally the most crucial aspect of a remote trip is, communication aside, money set aside or having an insurance which provide recovery in case of a major break down.... I've done some remote trips, having everything set up, but the $$$ for major recovery... we all know well..., a remote recovery could cost up to 10-15k...
